Kind of surprised that Rich, having taken a stand in part on behalf of Gorman, would budge. He had the high ground, so to speak. I’ll wait to see what the arrangement looks like before I judge too harshly. And, who I am kidding, of course I’ll go see whatever product they end up putting out.

there was a recent article in rolling stone with a few things from the book. the story was steve was going to be made a paid employee rather than full member of band. maybe rich also although i read that somewhere else. who knows whats the truth of it. regardless sounds pretty dysfunctional whatever is to blame.

Declining Jimmy Page’s offer to co-write material does not seem like a plausible reason for Page to quit a tour.

6. Rich Robinson’s snub of Jimmy Page derailed the Black Crowes’ 55-date tour with the Led Zeppelin guitarist after just 11 shows.The pairing of Page with the Crowes gave the dysfunctional band a shot in the arm in 2000 and set them up for a successful year of touring. But following an appearance on The Tonight Show, Page, who was battling back problems, mysteriously disappeared, and the tour was canceled. Gorman learned the real reason why Page left from the man himself a year and a half later. According to the drummer’s recollection, Page told him that he offered to write songs with the Robinson brothers for their next record, but Rich blew him off with a “No thanks! … We don’t need more songs.” “I was insulted,” Page said to Gorman, who furiously called the Crowes’ manager and told him, “I’m driving to Connecticut, and I’m going to kill Rich in his home.”

that wasn't what caused an issue between rich and steve either. this was something I think happened around 2013

think that was when chris wanted to own the name & make everyone else employees. i don't think it would be smart artistically for rich to reunite. he's doing good stuff with magpie salute. don't know if how much money he's making off of it though. the first tour they had a huge band that shrunk later. really like the magpie records a lot.

This reunion is looking like it is a very big lost opportunity. I’m a big black crowes fan, they are fantastic. Yes they are a bit of a retro band. And where they are incenses firmly on their rock ‘n’ roll hearts. Stones, faces, Zepplin, the Grateful Dead, the band. However they do it with the flare and determination that is thrilling. From all accounts it’s going to be just Chris and Rich and then some hired guns. Ford will not be in the band. Neither will Steve. There are rumors that they’re going to work on new material. However, This whole thing is very Taudrey and a bit depressing. It looks like it’s purely a quick cash grab.
